In Re the Estate of Ricard
South Dakota Supreme Court
1Opinion of the Court
GILBERTSON, Chief Justice.
[¶ 1.] Appellant Renee Laas appeals from a circuit court order denying her Petition to Set Aside Informal Probate and Declare Intestacy. Laas argues that although the estate was completely settled by an order of the circuit court, the will in question was never formally probated. Accordingly, Laas asserts that SDCL 29A-3-401 and SDCL 29A-3-108 allow her to file a petition to set aside informal probate and declare intestacy, without regard to the final order that declared the will valid and completely settled the estate. We affirm.
